The Yellow House

Spacious, stylish and with an iconic plunge pool

The Yellow House, the largest of three houses, accommodates up to six people. It includes the main house and two separate buildings, Suite 2 and Suite 3. The main house features the primary bedroom, bathroom, living room, and kitchen, while each suite offers independent facilities, including a toilet and shower. The separate buildings provide privacy, making it ideal for groups who enjoy traveling together but also value personal space.

The fact that the Yellow House consist of three separate, unconnected buildings, it is best suited for families with children aged 12 and over or for adults-only stays.

The Space

The Yellow House features a spacious, cozy living room with high ceilings, enhancing its sense of openness. At its heart is a large vintage “Strips” sofa, designed by the renowned Cini Boeri for Arflex, complemented by an original Elle55 floor lamp by Tommaso Cimini. The room is warmed by a wood burner, while underfloor heating, powered by eco-friendly electric heat pumps, ensures comfort across all three buildings.

The main bathroom boasts a custom-made solid oak bath, perfect for relaxing. Eco-friendly shower gel and shampoo from local Algarve brand 8950 Cosmetica are provided.

Outside, enjoy a spacious terrace with outdoor seating and vineyard views, plus another terrace beside the kitchen with a dining table for eight. Nearby, an orchard with fruit trees like lemon, lime, and orange, as well as a herb garden, adds to the charm.

A highlight of the Yellow House  is the stunning plunge pool, converted from an irrigation tank, making it possibly one of the Algarve’s most iconic pools. The pool area includes a deck, lawn, sun loungers, parasols, and an outdoor shower, providing an ideal space for relaxation.
